The population bombhttp://www.hcn.org/issues/355/17259
HCN,
9/3/07). No amount of mitigation for stopping climate change will
work unless we stabilize population. Nothing will solve this
civilization's spiral into irreversible consequences and unsolvable
problems unless we stop population growth. The March 2006
population projections from Fogle/Martin show the United States
growing from 300 million to 400 million by 2040. That's another 100
million people, folks! This "Human Katrina" will sweep across this
nation, making our children victims or survivors. What we really
need are national policies on population, carrying capacity,
environmental impact, international family planning and alternative
energy. Colorado stands in the crosshairs of an added 6 million
people by mid-century. Name one advantage to adding 6 million
people to Colorado. If we don't stop population growth, we're
simply painting the deck chairs on the Titanic to make them look
pretty. Educate yourself: www.numbersusa.com.

Immigration is the most formidable weapon of mass destruction threatening America today (HCN, 5/15/06). Ironically, invaders have put our country at risk without firing a shot. The White House, the heavies in Congress and the smaller fish in state legislatures do not seem to have the collective intellectual depth or common sense to see what is upon us and how rampant immigration will degrade the lives and opportunities of our progeny.

Every day brings America closer to irreversible chaos. Behind this issue are blind forces to reckon with. No politician, political party, corporation, religious fervor, investment, pop morality or individual aspiration should come before country. Ever! The brokers who recklessly advocate or condone pervasive immigration are steersmen with Titanic-like wheelhouse credentials.
